  1. Aww poor Rocious. It’s so hard to lose a fur baby. ???? Lost my Dakota to kidney disease in 2021 and it still hurts. Luckily my just-turned-4 year old, Leo, hugely makes up for it (we got him as a kitten a few months after Dakota lost his battle). We also have Callie, though she’s a daddy’s girl.

    1. Hi Sylvia, sorry to hear about your cat, Dakota. Lucky you can enjoy Leo and Callie's love! Thanks for your comment
